Set aircraft altitude???

[charlie87 10]

hi all!

how can I set the altitude of an aircraft (C-130 for examples) to 1000m at the begin of the mission?

name_of_plane flyinheight 1000;

(i think)

[Tajin 348]

flyInHeight tells the AI how high they should fly, but it does NOT put the plane on that height.

init:

this setPos [getPos this select 0,getPos this select 1,1000]

thanks a lot!

Could you put this in simpler terms? I'm confused about the variables in the 'base' script that you put.

Could you type out the exact line of script I need to make a C130 fly at 800 ft?

Thanks,

Leving.

Though, what that actually does is instruct the plane to climb to 800.

To START a plane at 800 you need to do what Tajin said, Set it's Position using setPos to 800.

A position consists of an X value, Y value and Z value. X is basically forward/backward, Y is left/right and Z is up/down. The position values are kept in an array of three numbers, like [0,0,0] or [200,10,800]. To simply move the plane upwards 800 you keep the first two values and change the third to 800. The "getPos this select 0" and "getPos this select 1" are just commands to figure out the first two numbers for us.
